06 RS Nytro with 13,000 miles. What should I check?

[Bradford]

Well, it's getting to be that time. With 13,000 miles, it's just a matter of time before the common high mileage things start to happen. Being the proactive (not pun here) type, I want to check and fix the know issues before I have to get towed home.

I'm looking for any input from anyone that knows anything about everything that I should check! One concern is corroded ground connections. Can anyone tell me where to locate these points in the harness so that I can fix them now?

Here's what I've done so far:
- All bearings including drive shaft and jack shaft, chain case, etc
- Oillite A-arm bushings
- Skid rails
- W-arm reinforcement
- Pivot arm replacement
- Track
- Skis
- Brake pads
- Exhaust o-rings
- Cam chain adjuster
- Oil tank mounted with rubber o-rings to prevent cracking (so far so good)
- Chain case cover to prevent leaks around the cover gasket
- Shock revalve and 2 rebuilds
- Carb air screw adjustment and sync
- Clutch weights
- Of course, the normal stuff: slides, skid wheels & bearings, carb cleaning, grease, oil changes, belt, etc


Here's what I plan on doing this summer
- Steering bushings
- Maybe the stater or at least look at it
- Exhaust o-rings again
- Brake pads again
- Chain
- General tear-down and inspection to look for anything visible. Cracks, missing bolts, wiring issues, etc
- Of course, the normal stuff: slides, skid wheels & bearings, carb cleaning, grease, oil changes, belt, etc

I've only ever been towed once, last year when my drive shaft broke... and it wasn't a good feeling. The Doo guy that towed me used my camera to take the pictures... Classic!

Thanks tomanytoyz, makes sense

Anyone else?? With all the high mileage Yamaha's, there's gotta be more opinions and suggestions out there
